Ayo Gry Jonassen
Co-founder of Skinship_Berlin - a touch based place for kinship. Sexological Bodyworker and facilitator of embodied intimacy for queer people.
http://www.touchedbodywork.comMy passion is to create healthy and healing touch based spaces and relationships for queer people to grow and connect. My background is rooted in activism, nature and communities and I believe in cultivating the sense of belonging and interconnectedness.
I am holding space for somatic sex education for queers, where touch, care and intimacy not only belongs to romantic relationships. Where we practice connections, distance, skills of touch, vulnerability and communication without being in a direct sexual situation. We practice consent and self reliance. This is how we can build trust and love each other. Somatically investigating the sense of being the expert and responsible for our own bodies, boundaries and desires. Inviting vulnerability, sexuality and intimacy to be present without expectations of a goal or direction. Honesty without projections. Listening actively. Talking and touching from queer hearts.
I am working in Berlin and Copenhagen in a patchwork of sexological bodywork, embodied therapy, Bondage and tantra massage.
I am a non-binary transperson, pronoun they/them.
